The necessary encouragements hav-
ing been given, Livingston & Co. are
hasty preparations for the rails
ing of flax to supply their mammoth
flax mills which will soon be erected in
our village. From what we have learn
ed Of the extent and benefit of this in
dustry, we not only welcome it to our
town but also earnestly commend it to
the careful consideration of our farm
ers, feeling assured that it will be of
great pecuniary benefit to all who may
engage in the production of flax. Farm
ers having more land than they can
work will doubtless find it to
their advantage to rent such surplus
ground to the flax company for cultiva-
llon Vi llaA IeCeiFiilS iedSohdule Con-
pensation for the same. There will be
600 tons Of fax required to furnish said
mills at price of $1,000 per ton;
hence causing to be circulated, at
least, 5000 among the farmers of this
vicinity. AS this is no lighting rod
swindle or Bohemian oat scheme, we
recommend the new indus
try, hoping it will receive the immedi-
ate attention Of all who may share in
its distribution of wealth.
